Change 'Expertise' in Member Subscription

Is it possible to change ‘Expertise’ on the member sign up page under name? I ideally need to that say ‘Location?’ And can this be done with some script as opposed to editing the theme?

Thanks.

Anyone? I really need help to change this, as Expertise is very ‘niche’ and not appropriate to my site.

You wouldn’t be able to force the “Expertise” to show as “Location”, prompting individuals to add their location, though I’m more than happy to pass on a feature request to our team for this!

Question: I don’t see any field for “Expertise” in the sign-up form. Is that unique to the theme you’re using?

It’s part of the comments section - you’ll get this popup when you first comment:

And those details will be included as part of the comment

Hi. I know it’s there, I just didn’t want the word ’ expertise’. I was keen to change it as not pertinent to my website, but according to Ghost Support you can’t, which is s shame but can live with it I guess.

I had completely forgotten about that field in the comment form. But, it’s not stored in the member record, is it? Or is it just not accessible in the admin side?

It’s stored in the members table, but not included in the Admin API/UI.
